Chickadee dee dee dee

This chickadee print was one of my creations at the NSCAD extended studies letterpress workshop I took a few months ago. Well... the type portion was done at the workshop. Since the workshop I have been wanting to add another element to the print and so I decided to carve a chickadee using my speedball/linocutting tools. I had some gold block printing ink that I thought would look great and I really love the sheen that it gives off. Speaking of Chickadees, we had one visit our bird feeder this weekend! We were very excited as the bird traffic at our feeder has been extremely low.
